The award of bursaries to Malaysian students deserving of university education was a fundamental element of the CSR initiatives of Maybank since 1972. It is a major part of the “Education” topic in the six (6) pillars of corporate responsibility chosen by the Maybank Foundation, with the principal goal of providing financial support to worthy students with great potential. Create a robust entry-level pipeline that includes new graduates from top-class universities. Strengthen the reputation of Maybank as the leading employer of talent, particularly for new graduates.
To date, around 2000 Malaysian students have been given access to high-quality undergraduate training in several subjects that are related to banking and finance by some of the best universities in the world. From 2019 on, the Maybank Group Scholarship Program has an extensive local presence and full banking service in Cambodia, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
A full scholarship is offered to high-potential students from selected universities in Malaysia, Australia, the UK, and the United States of America, who support their high-level studies in academic and extra-curricular activities. Such bonds will cover the entire cost of tuition and registration fees, as well as connected expenses, including books, accommodations, and living benefits.
